Adidas pulls sneakers after controversial shackles are tied to slavery.

Shiv is gonna love these!

LOS ANGELES - Only a few days after revealing a bizarre sneaker online, Adidas has decided to squelch the design that some people have labeled as racist and insensitive to slavery.

Adidas posted a Facebook photo of the JS Roundhouse Mids, a shoe that comes with a plastic shackle attached to it. The company tried to market the shoe as a trendy design that itâ€™s wearer would not want to remove.

â€œGot a sneaker game so hot you lock your kicks to your ankles?â€ Adidas asked on its Facebook post.
